On Thursday 30th of September in the Art Gallery "ASTROLAVOS
artlife" will take place the opening of a group exhibition
of artistic fabrications with name...of origin "Oooh...I'm
getting married!!!".
It is a high-spirited exhibition by the artists who cooperate
with us with the one and only mention to the institution
of marriage, which still lasts maintaining its religious
character (despite the fashionable habits of the young)
and it either satirizes, or suggests artistic solutions
for the trite and standards (invitations, wedding sugared
almonds, wedding wreaths, candles, gifts, etc.)
There are many funny fabrications that refer to marriage.
Some different wedding-gowns will thrill the eccentrics,
(Holeva's made of plastic stripes with endless wedding pictures,
Lakah's made of taffeta with baby-dolls on). Some different
wedding-invitations, that either declare in an artistic
way and with honesty the loss of freedom, or the sweet expectation
of some utopians for a bed of roses will invite as well
as provoke. Some other wedding-wreaths...thorny that cause
incurable wounds and some other tender with flowers made
of delicate thin metal (in order to sell something too)
will give another note to the newly-weds. Some weddings
sugared almonds night piss bowl and some silver fabrications
for those who prefer conventional solutions will be the
"sop" for the guests. Some candles with overhanging dolls,
heralds of fertility and some others with silver ornaments/gems
for a conventional set of wedding-wreaths and weddings sugared
almonds will surround the newly-weds. For those who fed
up will scream "Oooh...I'm getting married!!!"
and for those who will shout "Oh la la...I'm getting married!!!".
For the relatives and friends a walk around the exhibition
will certainly be good and will give ideas for the mystery
or the martyrdom of marriage.
Duration: until 30th of October.
